FERC Gas Tariff

September 26, 2000.
    Take notice that on September 22, 2000, East Tennessee Natural Gas 
Company (East Tennessee) tendered for filing as part of its FERC Gas 
Tariff, Second Revised Volume No. 1, the tariff sheets listed in 
Appendix A to the filing, to be effective October 15, 2000.
    East Tennessee states that, on March 14, 2000, East Tennessee was 
acquired from El Paso Energy (El Paso) and became a wholly-owned 
subsidiary of Duke Energy Corporation (Duke). East Tennessee states 
that, pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, El Paso entered into a 
Transition Agreement to ensure the smooth operation of the East 
Tennessee pipeline system for a period of up to nine months from the 
closing date (transition period). East Tennessee states that, during 
the transition period, East Tennessee's customers continued to use El 
Paso's electronic interface system (PASSKEY) to conduct their daily 
business activities while Duke made the necessary changes to implement 
the LINKr Customer Interface System for East Tennessee.
    East Tennessee states that this filing: (1) reflects the 
implementation of the LINKr System for East Tennessee effective on 
October 15, 2000, (2) updates East Tennessee's mailing addresses and 
contact information, and (3) corrects certain tariff provisions to 
reflect appropriate cross references to other tariff provisions.
    East Tennessee states that copies of its filing have been mailed to 
all affected customers and interested state commissions.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to protest said filing should 
file a motion to intervene or a protest with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20426,

Rules and Regulations. All such motions or protests must be filed in 
accordance with Section 154.210 of the Commission's Regulations. 
Protests will be considered by the Commission in determining the 
appropriate action to be taken, but will not serve to make protestants
